POPLAR BLUFF, Mo, April 2O.-Satur-
day night Constable Charles Bartield OF
Butler county went to NeelyVille with a
posse of half dozen deputies to arrest
two outlaws. They took a position to
await their coming. On the same night
the Rjply county sheriff came to Nicely
vile on the same mission, and neither
knew of the others presence. The But
Ter county men had hardly taken posses
sion when they heard the Ripley county
deputies approaching and supposed they
were the outlaws, who had come with q
large force in anticipation Of an attack.
The Butler county deputies opened fusi
lade on them with Winchesters. The fire
was returned. For several hours the dep
uties wsged desultory warfare. At day
light the besieged recognized the besieg-
ing party and parley was effected, which
ended the battle. Two men were wound
ed, though not fatally. The outlaws have
left the country.

good looks and fiue clothing, was ar

The distressing sneeze, sueeze, sneeze the acrid,
watery discharges from the eyes and nose, the
painful Inflammation extending to the throat, the
swelling of the mucous lining, causing choking sent
satons cough. ringing noises in the head and split
ting headaches-how familiar these symptoms are
to thousands who suffer periodically from head
colds influenza, and who live in ignorance of the
fact that single application OF Sanford's Radical
Cure for Catarrh will afford instantaneous relief
But this treatment in cases of simple Catarrh
gives but faint idea of what this remedy will do
in the chronic FORMS where the breathing is OBJ
structed by choking, putrd mucous accumula-
tions, the hearing affected, smell and taste
throat liberated and hacking cough gradually faS.
tening itself upon the debiltated system. Then it
is that the marvellous curative power of Sanford s
Radical Cure manfests itself in instantaneous and
grateful relief Cure begins from the first applica-
ton. 1t is rapid, radical, permanent economical,
safe.
